(1) The stop performance order results in an increase in the time required for, or in
the CONTRACTOR’S cost properly allocable to, the performance of any part of
this Contract; and
(2) The CONTRACTOR asserts a claim for such an adjustment within thirty (30)
days after the end of the period of performance stoppage; provide that, if the

13. Termination for Default.
a. Default. If the CONTRACTOR refuses or fails to perform any of the provisions of this
Contract with such diligence as will endure its completion within the time specified in
this Contract, or any extension thereof, otherwise fails to timely satisfy the Contract
provisions, or commits any other substantial breach of this Contract, the Agency
procurement officer may notify the CONTRACTOR in writing of the delay or non-
performance and if not cured in ten (10) days or any longer time specified in writing by
the Agency procurement officer, such officer may terminate the CONTRACTOR’S
right to proceed with the Contract or such part of the Contract as to which there has
been delay or a failure to properly perform. In the event of termination in whole or in
part, the Agency procurement officer may procure similar goods or services in a
manner and upon the terms deemed appropriate by the Agency procurement officer.
The CONTRACTOR shall continue performance of the Contract to the extent it is not
terminated and shall be liable for excess costs incurred in procuring similar goods or
services.
b. CONTRACTOR’S duties. Notwithstanding termination of the Contract and subject to
any directions from the Agency procurement officer, the CONTRACTOR shall take
timely, reasonable, and necessary action to protect and preserve property in the
possession of the CONTRACTOR in which the OHA has an interest.
c. Compensation. Payment for completed goods and services delivered and accepted by
the OHA shall be at the price set forth in the Contract. Payment for the protection and
preservation of property shall be in an amount agreed upon by the CONTRACTOR and
the Agency procurement officer. If the parties fail to agree, the Agency procurement
officer shall set an amount subject to the CONTRACTOR’S rights under chapter 3-126,
HAR. The OHA may withhold from amounts due the CONTRACTOR such sums as
the Agency procurement officer deems to be necessary to protect the OHA against loss
because of outstanding liens or claims and to reimburse the OHA for the excess costs
expected to be incurred by the OHA in procuring similar goods and services.
d. Excuse for nonperformance or delayed performance. The CONTRACTOR shall not be
in default by reason of any failure in performance of the Contract in accordance with its
terms, including any failure by the CONTRACTOR to make progress in the
prosecution of the performance hereunder which endangers such performance, if the
CONTRACTOR has notified the Agency procurement officer within fifteen (15) days
after the cause of the delay and the failure arises out of causes such as: acts of God; acts
of a public enemy; acts of the State and any other governmental body in its sovereign or
contractual capacity; fires; floods; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; strikes or other
Attachment 11 – Sample of Contract – OHA-2018 103D General Conditions
10 OHA -2018 103D General Conditions
labor disputes; freight embargoes; or unusually severe weather. If the failure to
perform is caused by the failure of a subcontractor to perform or to make progress, and
if such failure arises out of causes similar to those set forth above, the CONTRACTOR
shall not be deemed to be in default, unless the goods and services to be furnished by
the subcontractor were reasonably obtainable from other sources in sufficient time to
permit the CONTRACTOR to meet the requirements of the Contract. Upon request of
the CONTRACTOR, the Agency procurement officer shall ascertain the facts and
extent of such failure, and if such officer determines that any failure to perform was
occasioned by any one or more of the excusable causes, and that, but for the excusable
cause, the CONTRACTOR’S progress and performance would have met the terms of
the contract, the delivery schedule shall be revised accordingly, subject to the rights of
the OHA under this Contract. As used in this paragraph, the term “subcontractor”
means subcontractor at any tier.
e. Erroneous termination for default. If, after notice of termination of the
CONTRACTOR’S right to proceed under this paragraph, it is determined for any
reason that the CONTRACTOR was not in default under this paragraph, or that the
delay was excusable under the provisions of subparagraph 13d, “Excuse for
nonperformance or delayed performance,” the rights and obligations of the parties shall
be the same as if the notice of termination had been issued pursuant to paragraph 14.
f. Additional rights and remedies. The rights and remedies provided in this paragraph are
in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or under this Contract.
14. Termination for Convenience.
a. Termination. The Agency procurement officer may, when the interests of the OHA so
require, terminate this Contract in whole or in part, for the convenience of the OHA.

CONTRACTOR specifying the part of the Contract terminated and when termination
become effective.

in connection with the terminated performance and on the date(s) set in the notice of
termination the CONTRACTOR will stop performance to the extent specified. The
CONTRACTOR shall also terminate outstanding orders and subcontracts as they relate
to the terminated performance. The CONTRACTOR shall settle the liabilities and
claims arising out of the terminated performance. The CONTRACTOR shall settle the

11 OHA -2018 103D General Conditions
Agency procurement officer may direct the CONTRACTOR to assign the
CONTRACTOR’S right, title, and interest under terminated orders or subcontractors to
the OHA. The CONTRACTOR must still complete the performance not terminated by
the notice of termination and may incur obligations as necessary to do so.
c. Right to goods and work product. The Agency procurement officer may require the
CONTRACTOR to transfer title and deliver to the OHA in the manner and to the extent
directed by the Agency procurement officer:
(1) Any completed goods or work product; and
(2) The partially completed goods and materials, parts, tools, dies, jigs, fixtures,
plans, drawings, information, and contract rights (hereinafter called

specially acquired for the performance of the terminated part of this Contract.
The CONTRACTOR shall, upon direction of the Agency Procurement officer, protect
and preserve property in the possession of the CONTRACTOR in which the OHA has
an interest. If the Agency procurement officer does not exercise this right, the
CONTRACTOR shall use best efforts to sell such goods and manufacturing materials.
Use of this paragraph in no way implies that the OHA has breached the Contract by
exercise of the termination for convenience provision.
d. Compensation.
(1) The CONTACTOR shall submit a termination claim specifying the amounts due
because of the termination for convenience together with the cost or pricing data,
submitted to the extent required by chapter 3-122, HAR, bearing on such claim.
If the CONTRACTOR fails to file a termination claim within one year from the
effective date of termination, the Agency procurement officer may pay the
CONTRACTOR, if at all, an amount set in accordance with subparagraph 14d(3)
below.
(2) The Agency procurement officer and the CONTRACTOR may agree to a
settlement provided the CONTRACTOR has filed a termination claim supported
by cost and pricing data submitted as required and that the settlement does not
exceed the total Contract price plus settlement costs reduced by payments
previously made by the OHA, the proceeds of any sales of goods and
manufacturing materials under subparagraph 14c, and the Contract price of the
performance not terminated.

(B) Costs incurred in preparing to perform and performing the terminated
portion of the performance plus a fair and reasonable profit on such portion
of the performance, such profit shall not include anticipatory profit or
consequential damages, less amounts paid or to be paid for accepted goods
or services; provided, however, that if it appears that the CONTRACTOR
would have sustained a loss if the entire Contract would have been
completed, no profit shall be allowed or included and the amount of
compensation shall be reduced to reflect the anticipated rate of loss;
(C) Cost of settling and paying claims arising out of the termination of
subcontracts or orders pursuant to subparagraph 14b. These costs must not
include costs paid in accordance with subparagraph 14d(3)(B);
(D) The reasonable settlement costs of the CONTRACTOR, including
accounting, legal, clerical, and other expenses reasonably necessary for the
preparation of settlement claims and supporting data with respect to the
terminated portion of the Contract and for the termination of subcontracts
thereunder, together with reasonable storage, transportation, and other costs
incurred in connection with the protection or disposition of property
allocable to the terminated portion of this Contract. The total sum to be paid
the CONTRACTOR under this subparagraph shall not exceed the total
Contract price plus the reasonable settlement costs of the CONTRACTOR
reduced by the amount of payments otherwise made, the proceeds of any
sales of supplies and manufacturing materials under subparagraph 14d(2),
and the contract price of performance not terminated.
(4) Costs claimed, agreed to, or established under subparagraphs 14d(2) and 14d(3)

a. Changes in scope. If any action or omission on the part of the Agency procurement
officer (which term includes the designee of such officer for purposes of this paragraph
15) requiring performance changes within the scope of the Contract constitutes the
basis for a claim by the CONTRACTOR for additional compensation, damages, or an
extension of time for completion, the CONTRACTOR shall continue with performance
of the Contract in compliance with the directions or orders of such officials, but by so
doing, the CONTRACTOR shall not be deemed to have prejudiced any claim for
additional compensation, damages, or an extension of time for completion; provided:

Agency procurement officer:
(A) Prior to the commencement of the performance involved, if at that time the

(2) Notice content. This notice shall state that the CONTRACTOR regards the act or
omission as a reason which may entitle the CONTRACTOR to additional

officer, upon receipt of such notice, may rescind such action, remedy such
omission, or take such other steps as may be deemed advisable in the discretion of
the Agency procurement officer;
(3) Basis must be explained. The notice required by subparagraph 15a(1) describes
as clearly as practicable at the time the reasons why the CONTRACTOR believes
that additional compensation, damages, or an extension of time may be remedies
to which the CONTRACTOR is entitled; and

make available to the Agency procurement officer within a reasonable time,

to agree to an adjustment shall not excuse the CONTRACTOR from proceeding with
the Contract as changed, provided that the Agency procurement officer promptly and
duly makes the provisional adjustments in payment or time for performance as may be
reasonable. By proceeding with the work, the CONTRACTOR shall not be deemed to
have prejudiced any claim for additional compensation, or any extension of time for
completion.
b. Time period for claim. Within ten (10) days after receipt of a written change order
under subparagraph 20a, unless the period is extended by the Agency procurement
officer in writing, the CONTRACTOR shall respond with a claim for an adjustment.
The requirement for a timely written response by CONTRACTOR cannot be waived
and shall be a condition precedent to the assertion of a claim.
c. Claim barred after final payment. No claim by the CONTRACTOR for an adjustment
hereunder shall be allowed if a written response is not given prior to final payment
under this Contract.
d. Other claims not barred. In the absence of a change order, nothing in this paragraph 20
shall be deemed to restrict the CONTRACTOR’S right to pursue a claim under the
Contract or for breach of contract.

b. If any change causes an increase or decrease in the estimated cost of, or the time
required for performance of, any part of the performance under this Contract, whether
or not changed by the order, or otherwise affects any other terms and conditions of this
Contract, the Agency procurement officer shall make an equitable adjustment in the (1)
estimated cost, delivery or completion schedule, or both; (2) amount of any fixed fee;
and (3) other affected terms and shall modify the Contract accordingly.
c. The CONTACTOR must assert the CONTRACTOR’S rights to an adjustment under

However, if the Agency procurement officer decides that the facts justify it, the Agency
procurement officer may receive and act upon a proposal submitted before final
payment under the Contract.
d. Failure to agree to any adjustment shall be a dispute under paragraph 11 of this
Contract. However, nothing in this provision shall excuse the CONTRACTOR from
proceeding with the Contract as changed.
e. Notwithstanding the terms and conditions of subparagraphs 23a and 23b, the estimated
cost of this Contract and, if this Contract is incrementally funded, the funds allotted for

organization without the prior written approval of the OHA.
b. All information, data, or other material provided by the CONTRACTOR to the OHA
shall be subject to the Uniform Information Practices Act, chapter 92F, HRS.

thereof, or any OHA employee, including the HOPA, the CPO, the Agency procurement

CONTRACTOR’S brochures, advertisements, or other publicity of the CONTRACTOR.
All media contracts with the CONTRACTOR about the subject matter of this Contract shall
be referred to the Agency procurement officer.

to overcharges which result from violations commencing after the price is established under
this Contract and which are not passed on to the OHA under an escalation clause.

enforceability of the remaining terms of this Contract.

provision, or condition of this Contract shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a
